Hi Garrett, I used your idea on my new deck. This is a outstanding idea and system. Great job!!

[@Sweenorbuilders]

This is awesome to hear!!

[@TheWhaleman64]

Why wouldn’t you use the Trex Rainescape system for the under deck drainage???

[@bobbray9666]

The sheet metal formed in between decking joists, prior to installing decking, seems like the best idea for waterproofing the space under that I've seen. I think the only way to make this work is to make sure the deck slants 1/4"/foot away from the house for proper drainage. If the deck was slanted less than that, the sheet metal forming would need to get progressively deeper away from the house, which would make the metal bending more complicated and cost more than if all way bent the same way. I'm going to built a deck above a walkout patio door next summer. I was looking at locking aluminum decking but the cost is really steep. Other alternatives are either using something like roofing membrane, which looks bad underneath as the membrane sags between joists or the many under deck solutions that looks like a lot of neck wrenching work. My deck will be 11' off the ground. I'm seriously thinking of drawing up a galvanized sheet metal profile and sending out to local sheet metal shops for a quote. I can always paint the underside of the metal before installing. I'd use joist flashing tape over the metal edges on the joists and that should seal well even with nails and screws going though the flashing when installing.

[@DennisB3533]

Great idea just a couple suggestions, 1) someone already brought up the point of the non galvanized nails and the pressure treated lumber and the problems that will eventually arise but the pressure treated lumber will cause the metal to deteriorate also, I would put a peel and stick tape like what you use around windows between the 2X4s and the metal to keep the lumber from reacting with the metal. 2) find a metal roofing company with a 20’ brake and they can make your trim in solid pieces so you don’t have to overlap. Again great idea I’ll use it myself thanks guys

[@Sweenorbuilders]

Great Suggestions Dennis! Thanks!

[@matttanglewood2522]

Second the idea of putting down the adhesive membrane first. That will isolate the metal pans from the p.t. wood ( along with the other benefits of protecting wood if there is any standing water on it). Still have to deal with fasteners. Could use copper roofing nails to secure it, but then have galvanic reaction problem between copper nail and metal pan. Could just hold the pans in place with 2nd application of flashing tape? Better yet, make the pans out of copper instead of sheet metal ( what are you guys, a bunch of cheap skates 😂🙄).

With the metal under the decking I have to wonder if that will also clog with debris then back up toward the house? Working on a flat roof leak under a sleeper deck as I type here. As I see it, the only thing you might gain is a few extra years on the roofing material due to no UV issues. My roof is 35 years old right now and even with PT wood that also splits / warps with time so needs replacement every 20 years or so.... even when stained for extra protection.

This is exactly the system that I came up with, minus full flat membraned base; but you got me considering it lol. The one hang up I have, is how to cover the cavities, both top and the ends, to prevent nesting bees, etc. So far I’m looking at a ss mesh screen.... which would also abate any debris...

[@michaelgrifoni2160]

Good call on preventing homes in the cavities, I shall need to consider this too. If I think of a good idea I’ll run it by you; please let me know if you come up with something first. It think the bug netting idea would work, just need it to be removable/trap door style so you can do clean outs

[@matttanglewood2522]

Could use something like core-a-vent or a black fiber mesh material ( can't think of name brands right now). We use stuff like that to keep bugs out of rain screens we do behind siding).

[@mikemorgan5015]

What holds the deck down? You've essentially created another membrane when you tied the sleepers together. A strong wind at the end of the channels will want to lift the whole deck. Where does the air between the rubber and the metal escape in high wind situations?

[@GregDiBernardo]

The debris will still collect on the metal. The sleepers are protected but now you can get synthetic purpose made sleepers that won't rot.

[@c4fishfood]

I expect the metal will self clean a bit better however, the triangular sluice will concentrate water and the texture of the metal is smoother than the rubber, making the flow velocity a bit higher to better carry sediment away. Also, there isn’t the same nook and cranny problem where sediment will build up in the 90 deg corners of the sleepers. I would be curious how this system weathers with time.

Hello! Would you mind commenting on the double water proofing? What I mean is, why do both waterproofing layers and not one or the other?

[@Mark_5150]

Nice solution. Thanks

[@717UT]

What do you guys do with a sleeper deck for uplift?

[@afbigfish1]

No worries about the metal buckling from expansion and contraction and nailing it both ends? There is a reason why metal roofs are designed to move...Looks like a good idea but it could be an issue. Hopefully the deck boards will provide enough force to keep the metal from buckling.

[@Sweenorbuilders]

Excellent point! We believe that two screws in each deck board 12" o.c. will be enough to resist that force! Thanks for your input and for watching!

[@tonybumbacco7494]

the deck drainage system is brilliant!!! quick question... bc the sleepers are not fastened in any way... do they warp, twist or move... and when you walk on it.. are there spots that thump as your foot adds pressure...

[@rsweenor]

Great question. Very possible. The deck screws help a little bit, but it is wood, and it’s an imperfect system. We try to avoid using PT straight off the shelf, and give it some time to dry, because the dryer it is the less it will move. A week of drying will weed out some of the crappy boards. The grain will give hints on how the wood is going to move, but time is the best judge. Hope that helps

[@gregz7159]

Is outdoor vinyl waterproof membranes used in the Northeast US? I heard they are approved for use over living space and are slip-resistant, available in many colors and generally maintenance free. I was told by my contractor that the vinyl is the waterproofing and there is no need for a rubber membrane, sleepers or any other water shedding system. Less chance of failure. This vinyl outdoor vinyl flooring is popular in Canada and the East Coast US. Have you installed this type of outdoor vinyl before?

[@carterhoule1276]

i know everyone is a critic, but what is stopping that second story deck from being picked up and carried away if every thing is sitting in sleepers and your sleepers are fastened to the roof deck. On top of that how are you supposed to fasten the railing posts down. I'm a deck builder in Minnesota and do some pretty custom work often including drainage systems on decks. The last deck I did had a full board board and batten ceiling and we used the Trex RainEscape system and had left the ceiling open for 2 weeks after the install to inspect our work and make sure we had zero leaks before we buttoned it up. That system works beautifully, only had on leak and it was on the back left corner between the ledger and 1/4" gap between from one of 2 ply rim-joists being cut a little short. Some butyl caulk and it never leaked again. People have used the same basic principles of this system with EPDM pond liner and 3" joist flashing tape and have received the same if not sometimes better results. I don't mean to sh** on your work but there are much better ways of achieving this result and probably for less cost.

On the decking. Why don’t you use a simple system like Eterno Invica? (easy access) Is there a USA equivalent? Also, I’ve never been a big fan of rubber roofs. When you have spent half your working life surveying & maintaining buildings of all different types. This roof system is the costliest when it goes wrong; too easy to puncture. I’ve organised many repairs over many years on different brands of single membrane roof coverings all over the UK. Maybe that is why the video commentator mentions the the point of gaining access if there is a water leak. What made him say that? 30 years of experience? As a suggestion, use a hard wearing thicker reinforced bitumen flat roof product or roll on glass fibre system in the first place. They are harder wearing & more cost effective in the long run. Who wants to dig under nailed down linear sheeting buckling them in the process & trying to relay them? Also, treated timber only lasts externally say, 15-20 years (depending on environment) You know what it’s like in the construction game; tips to help each other.
